Hey BP! I am a senior baseball player at the University of Memphis. I currently have one rental property in Alabama. I am extremely interested in learning everything that I can about real estate. I plan on getting my license after graduating and either staying in Memphis or possibly moving to Nashville. I'd love to make as many connections as I can, so I can hit the ground running when I get out of college. I know there is so much I will need to learn, but I am looking forward to the journey!

    HI Michael,

    The best way is to attend local meetups and connect with people within the community. You can always start off in real estate by acquiring a property as a primary residence. You can put as low as 3.5%-5% down payment and rent out the vacant units to offset your mortgage. @Carlos Valencia @Albert Bui
